Efficacy of abiraterone combined with prednisone in castration-resistant prostate cancer and its impact on miR-221/222 expression. (PubMed, Am J Cancer Res)
Abiraterone combined with prednisone effectively relieves bone pain and improves PSA response rates in CRPC patients, suggesting benefits in enhancing quality of life and reducing testosterone levels without increasing adverse reactions. This therapy appears to have a safety profile comparable to that of conventional treatments.

LINC00365 promotes miR-221-5p to inhibit pyroptosis via Dicer in colorectal cancer. (PubMed, Acta Biochim Biophys Sin (Shanghai))
In the present study, we observe that LINC00365 promotes the expression of miR-221-5p by binding to the Dicer enzyme to inhibit GSDMD and plays an antipyroptotic role. Our findings suggest that LINC00365 may serve as a molecular biomarker for estimating the prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer and as a potential therapeutic target for colorectal cancer.

Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor via miR-126 controls tumor formation/growth and the proteolytic niche in murine models of colorectal and colitis-associated cancers. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
These findings demonstrate that suppressing HB-EGF and EGFR1 shifts the balance from oncogenic miR-221 to tumor-suppressive miR-126 action. Consequently, normalizing miR-126 expression could open new avenues for treating patients with CAC and CRC, and this normalization is intertwined with the anticancer efficacy of MMP inhibitors.

Curcumin mediated dendritic cell maturation by modulating cancer associated fibroblasts-derived exosomal miRNA-146a. (PubMed, J Cancer Res Ther)
Collectively, these findings provide insight into understanding the immunomodulatory role of curcumin in targeting CAFs and modulating TME, thus enhancing antitumor immune response in DC based therapy.

Evaluating the effects of curcumin nano-chitosan on miR-221 and miR-222 expression and Wnt/β-catenin pathways in MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and SKBR3 cell lines. (PubMed, Diagn Pathol)
Although the composite form of curcumin decreased the expression of miR-221 and miR-222 in MCF-7 and MDA cells, with significant decreasing of β-catenin and increasing of WIF1 gene in almost all three cell lines, we can conclude than this formulation exerts its effect mainly through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. These preliminary findings may pave the way for the use of curcumin nanoparticles in the treatment of some known cancers.

Spheroid architecture strongly enhances miR-221/222 expression and promotes oxidative phosphorylation in an ovarian cancer cell line through a mechanism that includes restriction of miR-9 expression. (PubMed, Mol Biol Rep)
The data indicate that growth in spheroid form enhances the OXPHOS activity of constituent tumor cells. In addition, spheroid architecture affects expression of microRNA genes involved in growth control and mitochondrial function. During the mobile phase of metastasis, when ovarian tumor cells disperse through nutrient-poor environments such as the peritoneum, enhanced OXPHOS activity afforded by spheroid architecture would enhance survival and metastatic potential.

Clinical significance and immune characteristics analysis of miR-221-3p and its key target genes related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition in breast cancer. (PubMed, Aging (Albany NY))
In conclusion, miR-221-3p acts as a unique indicator for Basal-like BC. The examination revealed ten essential ETGs of miR-221-3p, some of which show potential as diagnostic and prognostic markers. The in-depth examination of these ten ETGs and miR-221-3p indicates their participation in the development of BC, emphasizing their promise as innovative targets for therapy in BC patients.

Relevance and mechanism of STAT3/miR-221-3p/Fascin-1 axis in EGFR TKI resistance of triple-negative breast cancer. (PubMed, Mol Cell Biochem)
In our study, we observed that the TNBC cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 exhibited resistance to Gefitinib...Moreover, we propose that STAT3 regulates the expression of miR-221-3p/FSCN1 and therefore modulates resistance to EGFR TKI therapy in TNBC. Combining EGFR TKI therapy with inhibition of FSCN1 or STAT3 may offer a promising new therapeutic option for TNBC.

Inhibition of hepatocellular carcinoma growth via modulation of the miR-221/SOX11 axis by curcumin and berberine. (PubMed, PeerJ)
This combined effect was achieved by regulating the miR-221/SOX11 axis and activating the synthesis of pro-apoptotic proteins. Our findings highlight a promising combined therapeutic approach for HCC and underscore the importance of targeting the miR-221/SOX11 axis.
